This trend is a fundemental flaw with most new, "Cool" things that we are increasingly asked to deal with...IMHO...:)

Thanks, Pixels and Jay for the updates...Very Helpful!
We'll be looking at the PurpleAir...

Hi Kiel - is the 1.14.00.155 update and panel firmware solution still holding strong for you a month later?? UC engines have been such a headache for us at my company I've started having to research alternative solutions like Logitech Rally kits or Neat bars.? Unfortunately those also come with issues of their own.

Incidentally, does anyone else know of any reliable, readily-integratable solutions for no-device-needed Teams/Zoom conferencing as part of a larger room integration with a full control system, dsp, etc?

You could do
Ones = Analog_Temperature mod 10;
it would be one less calculation for the system.

Just so everyone knows, and this goes to the lurkers from Crestron as well.?
I called twice about the Cert issue and both times I was told that they won't help me, per management direction.
This is just absurd and makes me dislike Crestron on a different level!

Thanks

Hello John, just write a Simpl+ module like this:


#DEFAULT_VOLATILE
#ENABLE_STACK_CHECKING
#ENABLE_TRACE

ANALOG_INPUT Analog_Temperature;
STRING_OUTPUT String_Temperature;
?
CHANGE Analog_Temperature
{
?? ?INTEGER Tens, Ones;
?? ?Tens = Analog_Temperature / 10;
?? ?Ones = Analog_Temperature - (Tens * 10);
?? ????
?? ?MAKESTRING(String_Temperature, "%d.%d", Tens, Ones);???
}

FUNCTION Main()
{
?? ?WAITFORINITIALIZATIONCOMPLETE();
}

Then you can send in your 708 and it will output 70.8

I need a solution for setting up a VC4 in my home office and wanted to gauge what others suggest is the best method, particularly from a hardware perspective.?

My initial thought was to utilize xio cloud and the "trials" but not sure how feasible that is long term. Yesterday, I created an Alma Linux vm machine on my M1 and installed VC4, however the steps to modify the SNMPd.conf had permissions issues, I was unable to connect and not sure how much time to put into getting that approach working.

Basically, what do method is best for both cost and maintenance? I find myself going in circles between referencing online help, CTI videos and general info found in searches here. TIA.

Hi,

I took a quick look at the driver and their latest API documentation.? The driver was written 4 years ago for Kaiterra's Laser Egg models of IAQ monitors (which it appears have been discontinued).? The API documentation now shows that data elements are being returned as an array of parameters.? When the driver was written that wasn't the case so I don't believe the driver will work with the new models.? However, without testing, I can't be sure.

As Pixel Bits points out, the Kaiterra API is cloud based.?? This is why I personally use indoor and outdoor monitors from PurpleAir.? They have a local API and there is a driver on my GitHub.

PurpleAir, like WeatherFlow, is in the business of collecting data from all the sensors they sell, combining that data into an overall map of data in all the countries where sensors are located, and selling that data to governments, etc.? You can checkout the map by going to the PurpleAir web site and choosing real-time-map from the map dropdown.

Hope this helps

Jay

Aqara's Presence Sensor FP2 has revolutionized presence sensing with its use of millimeter wave radar.? The sensor is so sensitive it can detect the movement of a person's chest while sleeping under a blanket.? Aqara has just announced several new features for the product.? Sleep monitoring is currently being rolled out in a firmware update and there are more features being planned for future updates.

This article looks at these new features in more detail.

You can find the article here:

I've found a new site to host my blog so for those that want to see even more content I've written about smart home technology you can find that using the link below. The process of exporting all my old content from Blogger and importing it into WordPress was far from perfect. So there are formatting issues with old posts and images that didn't import. I will see what I can do about correcting some of these issues over time.



Thanks

Have you tried updating the Roku driver to the latest version (driver ID 4976, v2.0700.0001, last updated 10/13/2023)? Reportedly the latest version of this driver deals with this very issue. Here is an excerpt from the release notes: "Added device connection recovery pattern for loss of communication with device scenarios." I pushed this this to a couple projects and although it has only been about 3.5 weeks I have not heard any complaints. As you may know, drivers are not automatically updated so you will need to follow the process for updating this driver outlined in the CH manual. Let us know how it goes. Godspeed!

Best regards,

JWS?

Hello everyone,
I have the same problem, is there anyone who has gotten it to work?
Thanks in advance.

Fairly straightforward but requires authentication with their cloud infrastructure - no local APIs (discussed this with them at length). Uses an API key you get from their dashboard. Clean information but really a bother that you can't get access from the device directly, $240/yr/device is expensive for a data dashboard.

I should have checked!? I see that Jay Basen has a code set for the 'Laser Egg'... Jay, do you think that the Mini is just a new form factor and thus your code will work with it??

TIA!

Anyone integrated/created a module for the Kaiterra Sensedge/Sensedge Mini??
TIA!

Can anyone point me in the right direction, how to generate a certificate?
Crestron TB is totally useless!

I need a certificate for a NVX and a TSW so the client does not see the message on the touch panel.

Thank you!

Updating to latest version of your modules seems to have taken care of the issue.? Will run it and post back later.

Use an analog to serial. You will probably need to take your three analogs to equ's then to init's to get them to values the atos wants to see.
